Back to School Fall 2012 Part 2

Note about Back to School: I had actually written the first part of this post up a few days before it "aired" and in the interim, someone had not only posted the pictures to Facebook, but to their blog as well. Thanks gang!

I'm happy to report that the Monkeys in Idaho also headed back to school in style.

Ms. Elle is much more styling than I ever was - what with the matching shades, sox, and accessories. What a pretty pretty pre-schooler!

Big sister Amber headed off to first grade also decked out in purple pastels. Again, so much more confident in pictures and poise than I was at her again. You go girl!

So proud of my girls - especially their Mama for surviving. It's a good thing that Papa took them out on the water from time to time to play.

Motto since 2015

About Me

"There can be only one," but one is enough! Auntie Nettie blogs in New York, from a small art studio surrounded by yarn, books, and craft projects in various states of completion. When she's not crafting or asleep (wishful thinking, she is chronically sleep-deprived), she's a fund-raiser/administrator for a unique music and arts organization, a former database guru for one of the country's premiere conservatories, a former music librarian, a free-lance editor/writer, and a minuscule business-owner, or she's off running around NYC trying to see friends, on the train or some other mass transit, travelling all over the country to see her extended network of friends and family, OR just going crazy in general.

Blog Mission

The blog was started to be a loose record of Auntie Nettie’s life, mostly for the purpose of entertaining herself, and by extension, her nieces and nephews. As the kids get older and can read, hopefully they can use this blog as a way to get to know their Auntie Nettie better and read about shared visits, family members, and/or family stories that they may not remember or know.Frei Aber Einsam
